Hace tiempo que no teníamos noticias de Sony en el apartado de novedades del firmware de la PS4, aunque parece que está probando ya una nueva con el número 2.50 y que ha comenzado a distribuir entre los miembros del programa PlayStation MVP. La mayor novedad que traerá esta nueva versión será la capacidad de suspender la consola sin que se cierren las aplicaciones abiertas.

Hay nuevos ajustes de accesibilidad, y la posibilidad de reasignar globalmente los botones de acción de los mandos. Otras características que llegarán será la posibilidad de borrar los trofeos que estén al 0%, detalles sobre los trofeos, la posibilidad de usar Share Play a 60 fps, o comprobar la velocidad de la conexión a Internet del anfitrión de Share Play.

A continuación tenéis las notas completas del parche. Está previsto que llegue a finales de este mes o a principios de abril.
